When you're bottom of the table and already 3-0 down at home, you must be thinking things can't get worse.

That's probably why VfR Aalen's Collin Quaner couldn't muster anything other than an ear-to-ear grin when his own goal put four goals between themselves and Bochum. With a chipped cross coming in from the edge of the box, Quaner opted to attempt a needlessly acrobatic clearance by flicking his heel into the ball's path. That move saw the ball's trajectory change drastically and give the Aalen 'keeper no chance. Thankfully Quaner saw the funny side of it as he avoided the gaze of his teammates on his jolly jog back to the halfway line. https://youtu.be/5uNAkEwuR_Y
